Central adaptation to repeated galvanic vestibular stimulation: implications for pre-flight astronaut training. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Healthy subjects (N = 10) were exposed to 10-min cumulative pseudorandom bilateral bipolar Galvanic vestibular stimulation (GVS) on a weekly basis for 12 weeks (120 min total exposure).

Comparison of Asymmetry between Perceptual, Ocular, and Postural Vestibular Screening Tests
Brain Sciences, 2023 Background: A better understanding of how vestibular asymmetry manifests across tests is important due to its potential implications for balance dysfunction, motion sickness susceptibility, and adaptation to new environments.

Long-term sensorimotor adaptation in the ocular following system of primates. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The sudden movement of a wide-field image leads to a reflexive eye tracking response referred to as short-latency ocular following. If the image motion occurs soon after a saccade the initial speed of the ocular following is enhanced, a phenomenon known ...

Dual adaptation and adaptive generalization of the human vestibulo-ocular reflex [PDF]
Perception & Psychophysics, 1998 In two experiments, we examined the possibility that the human vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) is subject to dual adaptation (the ability to adapt to a sensory rearrangement more rapidly and/or more completely after repeated experience with it) and adaptive generalization (the ability to adapt more readily to a novel sensory rearrangement as a result of ...

Prosthodontic rehabilitation of patient with ocular defect using an alternative technique
Journal of Orofacial Sciences, 2012 An ocular prosthesis is a simulation of of a perfectly normal healthy eye and surrounding tissues. The primary purpose of an ocular prosthesis is to maintain the volume of eye socket and create the illusion of a healthy eye and surrounding tissue.

Optical coherence tomography in healthy human subjects in the setting of prolonged dark adaptation
Scientific Reports, 2023 Human studies have established that short periods of dark adaptation can induce outer retinal thinning and various band intensity changes that can be detected with Optical Coherence Tomography (OCT).

Human vestibulo-ocular reflex adaptation is frequency selective [PDF]
Journal of Neurophysiology, 2019 The vestibulo-ocular reflex (VOR) is the only system that maintains stable vision during rapid head rotations. The VOR gain (eye/head velocity) can be trained to increase using a vestibular-visual mismatch stimulus. We sought to determine whether low-frequency (sinusoidal) head rotation during training leads to changes in the VOR during high-frequency ...

Disconjugate ocular motor adaptation in rhesus monkey
Vision Research, 1992 We report a model for inducing disconjugate, orbital-position dependent, ocular motor adaptation in the rhesus monkey. Animals wore a combination of laterally-displacing prisms placed in front of one eye calling for a discrete change in ocular alignment when the eyes reached particular orbital positions.
